Ban the Bailiffs Workshop with Debt Justice
Advertisement
Join this free workshop hosted by campaigning organisation Debt Justice, part of the wraparound activity for ThisEgg's new show 'unfortunately'.
Council tax debt has soared in recent years, and rates just keep going up. 4.4 million people are now in debt.
For many, it’s becoming impossible to pay when the cost of living crisis and economic turmoil have squeezed budgets to the limit.
But instead of supporting families to get out of debt, councils are using violence, harassment and intimidation - sending in the bailiffs. Worse, the cost of a bailiff visit is added to people’s debt.
Councils in the UK should stop using bailiffs to collect council tax debt. No matter what people's financial circumstances are, everyone should be treated with dignity and respect.
This interactive workshop will help you understand the issue and give you the tools you need to join the fight against bailiffs in your local area.
